A Gay and Bigamous Skeleton.
From the Chicago Times


There was skeleton in the family
closet OF lssac W. Sprague, the famous
living skeleton of the museums, who died
recently. he was financially p "osparol 9
unfortunate, for his salary rang d be.
tween $50 aud 500 week for many years
during which ne was an exhibit, and as
he spent money slowly he leaves an es-
tate estimated at fully $4,000. From tina
TACT arises the scandal. With him at tb e
time of his death was a woman who
passed as his wife, and who claims the
fortune as such. She says that she as
regularly married to the atrophied human
curiosity two years ago in Cleveland, and
that thereafter she was his devoted com
panion ana nurse. She had been min, +
actress In dime museums, and was good
looking girl of 20. She declares that she
did not know of Sprague having had "a
prior Wife, and that he represented in his
courtship that he was bachelor. Blu
an undOubted first wife now comes tor
ward. She shows a marriage certificate
TO prove that she was married to the gay
skeleton in 1868 at Rocklaud, Mass,
where she bore him three children. de
deserted her four years ago, and she does
not know of his having obtained a
divorce. The money is in savings
banks here, aad there will be contest
for It.
